Good Neighbors will be honored on March 30

The Holden Democratic Town Committee announces the recipients of the 11th annual Good Neighbor Award. This nonpartisan award, begun in 1996, was created to honor longtime volunteers. It's an opportunity for friends and neighbors to say "thank you" to those people who have touched their lives through what they have given to the community.

Ruby Johnson is being honored for her faithful services to the Gale Free Library; Jim DeMarco for his many years with girls' softball in Holden; and Bill Pingeton because he personifies the concept of a good neighbor.

The recipients will be honored on Thursday, March 30, at a ceremony in the Senior Center, 7 p.m.
